520 1 _a"Every language has its peculiar problems of meaning for the foreign learner. In the English language, some of the biggest yet most fascinating problems are concentrated in the area of the finite verb phrases - in particular, tense, aspect, mood and modality." "Meaning and the English Verb describes these fields in detail for teachers and advanced students of English as a foreign or second language. This new third edition uses up-to-date examples to show differences and similarities between American and British English, reflecting a great deal of recent research in this area. It also takes account of the subtle changes which are taking place in the language today."--BOOK JACKET.
